I'm Michael Santos and I served 26 years in prison. While serving my sentence, leaders taught me how to prepare for success. I share those lessons with others.
Follow us on social and share these strategies with others to be the change you want to see.

Be the Change You Want to See
Join our community and stay inspired. Follow Prison Professors on social media. Engage with powerful stories, helpful resources, motivational content, and updates about our latest courses, podcasts, and advocacy efforts. Whether you're navigating the criminal justice system, supporting a loved one, or working toward personal growth and success, our social channels offer continuous encouragement and practical guidance.
We share shorter versions of the content we create on our website. Our interns monitor the page for comments, and pass those comments along for me to create responses, or they respond on my behalf. Please follow and share your thoughts.
Those who follow us on Instagram will see that, by following the guidance we offer, a person can build a pathway out of crisis and into prosperity. Leaders taught me lessons while I served my term. We offer videos and images to show the result.

Our "Tweets" offer insight into what we're covering on our website for the day. We always link back to the original post, and use this platform to show pathways leaders taught on how to move deliberately through challenges to a better life.
All our courses emphasize the importance of memorializing the journey. That strategy directly influenced my ability to succeed after decades in prison. Our nonprofit provides resources for anyone to build a profile, and mine serves as an example.
YouTube
We publish both long- and short-form videos. I began this channel within days of completing decades in prison. It contains hundreds of videos showing how decisions today lead to success. Please subscribe and share to help with our advocacy.
Podcasts
We offer digital content in every format, including our iTunes podcast. The audio format allows people to listen and learn anytime that is convenient for them. It's never too early and never too late to learn strategies to overcome challenges.
